திருக்குறள் – உலக பொதுமறை

அகர முதல எழுத்தெல்லாம் ஆதி 

பகவன் முதற்றே உலகு.

எழுத்துக்கள் எல்லாம் அகரத்தை அடிப்படையாக் கொண்டிருக்கின்றன, அதுபோல உலகம் கடவுளை அடிப்படையாக் கொண்டிருக்கிறது.

All letters are based on "A". Similarly, the whole world is based on the Almighty.

Finally, I got a chance to publish my own blog. I have been thinking of writing for a long time but due to some reason or the other I was not getting the frame of mind and was not getting a clear idea of what my blog is going to be?

For some reason, last sunday night I was unable to sleep. Instead of pushing myself hard to sleep I decided to drive my thought process on my long time dream of blogging. As all of us know, great ideas will pop up when the mind is relaxed. All the questions I had related to my blogging were answered :)

Here I am writing my first complete post, what else could be more appropriate than starting with Thirukural? 

Thirukaral was written by the Divine Poet Thiruvalluvar (தெய்வ புலவர் திருவள்ளுவர்). He lived and wrote Thirukural about 2000 years ago.

He grouped Thirukural into 133 Chapters (அதிகாரம்) and each chapter contains 10 Verses or Couplets (குறள்). Each chapter has a specific subject which ranging right from "How to do Agriculture" to "How to Rule a Country".

Even Thiruvalluvar talked about modern day's project management 2000 years ago.

"பொருள்கருவி காலம் வினையிடனொ டைந்தும்

இருள்தீர எண்ணிச் செயல்"

Meaning: Budget, Resource, Schedule, Activities and Place of Act; All these 5 elements should be thoroughly studied before starting a project.

To simply say, it's a literature on "How to live Life". If the mankind follows strictly what Thirukural says then the entire world can live in peace and harmony.

Long Live Thirukural!
